The following pages contain information submitted
by researchers from the Baltimore City Directories
They are the information which they have copied when
doing their own research and have kindly submitted to the
Baltimore City Web page for use by all of us in the hopes
that someone will be helped. If you have any pages which you
have copied please submit so that others might be helped.
The directory is helpful in several ways.
1)You can find out the address and job of an ancestor before they ask
occupation on the census.
2) Often father and sons lived together for a time period.
3) In census's that were not indexed, they can help you find the ward
to search.
4) Some indexes, especially the 1880 missed people that were in enumerated
in the census and appear in the directory. That tells you on what street
to look for them in the actual census.
5) If you look in consecutive directories, you can determine approximately
when someone died by when they drop out of the directories.
